Jesse has watched our dog Nico on a number of occasions, and I have never doubted that we left him in good hands. Even with Nico, who's admittedly a frenetic, rambunctious nutcase at times, Jesse was able to get him all the exercise he needed, and still have energy left to play with him at night. Jesse has had dogs in the past, and knows how to work successfully on cultivating dogs' better habits (something Nico definitely needs). He's dutiful with Nico's feeding, reliable with his walks and medicine, and truthworthy as a house sitter. And, for those who want regular updates, he's very good about sending regular texts and pictures. Every time we've worked with Jesse, we've come back to a clean house and a happy dog. I cannot recommend Jesse highly enough, and whenever possible, I know that Nico will be excited to see his friend again.
